It would help all our citizens if D.C. Council and Mayor Bowser established public bathrooms in the city. Many people are sick and cannot always control themselves. I am one of them.
I am a diabetic and I cannot hold my urine for very long. That means I have to get off the bus a lot. That also means I have to go between cars, on the side of trees, in alleys and in many other places where I don’t want to.
If we had public bathrooms, people in my situation would not have to urinate in the open, and thus would not have to feel embarrassed or ashamed because they are sick.
Public bathrooms will make the city cleaner and healthier. So, let’s build them now!
